>In theory, a god could be killed with a normal weapon.....but, of course, no god will stay dead, short of obliterating their souls. Zhengara, least of all. All you will do is force him off the material plane, and, having known his kind, he will most likely limit his activities.

Now that that is established, a normal weapon can kill a god. Many 'special' weapons are really just normal weapons that have slain the divine.<

<Using Orichalcum, how long will he stay dead?>
>Just as long as he would with normal iron; millennia. Maybe longer. He will certainly not reform in most of your lifetimes.<

<That is good enough. Though if normal iron does the job, what's the point of orichalcum? Is it like silver to werewolves, being especialy damaging?>

<Hmm, then we are mostly good in the damage department. And with enough magic users to supply the anti-magic field with mana, we have his abilities under controle too. even if he can still produce low level illusions, the equipment Kyle is working on should be able to see through them. What is left to do is find a way to weaken his physical capabilities, to make sure we can actually kill him before out field runs out. Something like a poison or a drug, perhaps a spell circle. Any ideas?>

<If he does, there is nothing we can do about it. I am hoping that the anti-magic field blurs his view on us enough that this castle is of low interest to him, and his focus on more vulnerable targets for him to torment.>

ICARUS sends a message to Samson btw, to hire him for the upcoming battle, to shoot orichalcum rounds. People with the ability to go beyond the limits of normal humans are exactly what will be useful in this fight

You really can both sig it.
But... That would break the laws of sigging! We can't have everyone running around with the same quotes. IT MAKES THEM UNFUNNY FASTER!

Will learns that the people who typically join the Knights happen to be average people, which is odd considering their stance on magic.

Will also learns that Arthur happens to do his recruiting at a cafe in Paris once a month. Will just isn't sure which day of the month he recruits on.
Will works on learning what kinds of people are recruited. Are an unusual percentage Christians, or Christians of some denomination? Do they tend to be more conservative, or more liberal? Demographics like that.
He also does a bit of location-finding to determine when in the month he's going to be recruiting.

Toy Story is over.
